As of August 2024Step into a piece of Charleston history; the St. Amand/ Aimar house at 181 Queen Street was built in 1841, the same year the Charleston City Market was built.

Just steps to Colonial Lake, this 6 bedroom, 7.5 bath home features a 4 bedroom, 4.5 bath main home with a 2 bedroom, 3 bathroom attached guest house connected via beautiful historic covered piazzas. The private guest house is also perfect for use as an office or income generating unit. This grand Charleston Single-style residence features an open formal living area with soaring 11'+ ceilings, original heart pine flooring, and detailed mouldings throughout.The bright kitchen features custom cabinetry, a Jenn Air appliance suite, and opens up to a large dining room complete with gas fireplace and an original marble mantel. On the second floor, the master suite features a gas fireplace, large bathroom with access to wrap around second story porches with beautiful views of Colonial Lake. With plenty of room for guests, all four bedrooms in the main house feature en-suite baths. The guest house has a full kitchen, living room, master bedroom with large walk in closet, a guest bedroom, and office with en-suite baths.
The unique outdoor living space features a travertine deck, heated pool with hot tub, astro turf lawn, and fire pit area.
